Description

The Skellig Islands are one of Europe’s most enigmatic sacred sites that pre-date Christianity by thousands of years. It’s the western most site of the ancient Apollo or St. Michael pilgrimage line that connects holy places from Western Ireland all the way to Palestine. As George Bernard Shaw wrote this UNESCO heritage site is an “incredible, impossible, mad place” that’s “part of our dream world” — a place steeped in tales of against-the-odds survival.
